    British tennis player Emma Raducanu has revealed why she “couldn’t say no” to Andy Murray when he asked her to play mixed doubles at this year’s Wimbledon .

    Speaking to BBC Sport on Wednesday (3 July), after making it through to the next round in the women’s singles competition, the 21-year-old said: “My doubles record is not exactly the longest or most vast, but I couldn’t say no.

    “It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, it’s a dream of mine since I was a young girl, since watching the Olympics.

    “Andy is a hero to all of us.

    “For me, it’s a real gift and an honour and something I could never say no to.”
